Good point - there are a ton of SMBs that have good business metrics, usually as a result of being around for a long time. I would think that these companies would be the primary audience for this - they would use the flexibility that a securitized revenue stream allows them to smooth out any cash flow problems they had. The majority of startups use investment to get to profitability / stability. This is why I think debt is a poor choice in general for the startup and tech market. I'd hope BigCash, co. models out default rates, not just SaaS metrics, and the adage, 9 out of 10 startups fail, while a bit harsh on revenue generating startups, doesn't bode well. If offered, I can see a very well positioned startup who has access to VC preferring to raise debt to avoid the hyper growth push of VCs and grow at their own pace. But also if offered, I can see a lot of high default risk companies use it to get cash because other options are not available, and the riskiness is why I didn't even think of an institution offering it in the first place - or just a repeat of the mortgage crisis.
